Boston - day 3

Downtown was surreal this morning with many fire engines, some vehicles stranded and a rescue helicopter going back and forth the financial district. The icy pavements - and the cold wind - deterred us from going up Beacon Hill so we went back the Museum of Fine Arts and visited the inside of the Old South Meeting House which was not open yet when we did the Freedom Trail yesterday. We then headed back to Logan Airport.
